Player Requests: If two players want to play with each other, both must submit the same request. Although we cannot guarantee any placement request, we will try to honor placement requests between 2 players so long as both request to play request to play together and we can still maintain a proportional balance of ages and abilities on teams. No requests to play for a certain coach are permitted.
